Here is the video of me and him... This is with his cutout closed as well.

I am making roughly 450-460Rw (same dyno 1 week after his).

He spun and I hooked.

Just let us know..

He has the D1 for sale... Going to a turbo setup and shooting for 1000.

He has the drivetrain and fuel to handle it.

It definitely sped the process up. He was NOT happy.

Our other best friend with the nitrous H/C C5z was loving it though. We gave him MAJOR hell when he lost just because.

We'd see a 370Z or something and be like, "Yo dude, race that... Might be a race since its a 370 and not a 750!".
That continued for about 3 weeks. LOL

Nice runs, man. Can't wait to see the video. A rider makes a huge difference and I've seen quite a few people who have run a ton of bikes previously get very upset when someone with skills hops on one. Bikes are not unbeatable by any means but the rider factor can surprise people, especially when they've run a dozen other bikes with "normal" riders on them.

Are you saying where the Camaro would be as far as power or speed?
500whp is low 130mph under ideal circumstances for me.

There are a few really good riders out here so I will try to get some good runs in this summer.

What should an Fbody at that level trap?

I would expect the bike to pull a few cars and the car to start coming back.

This car and i did a bunch of pulls with him on 26psi (no vids of those) and on the clean races he was losing by 1-2 car lengths...and then he broke 4 pistons and hurt one of the heads. Ragged edge tune FTL.

Wow, forgot about that vid. I owned the bike for a couple days before that vid, those were the first actual pulls.

Mine?

I went 10.6@133 in 800DA with a mediocre launch last year, haven't been back since.

I don't expect this bike to run well in the 1/4 with boost unless i lower it and stretch it. I have trap speed goals, but don't really care about ET with stock height/stock wheelbase.

Seems about right for a good rider
I raced a shitload of cars on my 750. Anything below a 75 roll and id jump out pretty quick. a few high hp cars reeled me in at 130 er so and i did get outran a few times by a built 2nd gen ctsv, blown c6z, and a nasty 350z with twins.

He shouldn't have a problem with 135.

I say your front raise quite a bit on one of the runs. I don't mean this offensively and hope it isn't taken that way.. You can ride and have a ton of potential but still got some learning. A 750 shouldn't be hard to keep down. It is definitely harder to keep tame at a 55+ roll in 1st gear but isn't an issue.

So imagine a slightly slower car with a slightly better rider... And some of you guys are doubting this? LOL

Good runs Beans! That pass at the end!

His car shouldn't have a problem with 130mph traps at all.. It should be a 135mph car pretty easy.

I could not tuck fully, give the jump, and start at a high mph to a 130mph car if I was on a 750 and still pull it easily.

Yeah. I've got another 100whp in 4th so that usually cranks back hard if Im behind at all.
